I think that is what he is going for. Being as us Sentinels are more like a fortified fortress than any other class, we can take the most damage and hulk through the marshes so to speak

I have an honest question that I would hope to discuss.
With all the nerfing done to the HMG in the past, have you guys considered or even tried using a shotgun on your sentinels in CQC?? Having not used the shotgun myself, only familiar with it's reputation, I sometimes think that if I played sent, I might want to at least give it a try.
Thoughts? Shotgun range is too short. I'd love shotguns to be rebalanced to 20m range and ~320dmg a shot or something like that, so they could be used on sentinels, commandos, assaults, logi's or scouts instead of *just* scouts.
I think the Shotty range has been silently buffed a little, because I am killing people with a shotty atleast 10m out of shotty range.

Any tips for how to use a Sentinel properly. I normally love being a mid-long range support gunner and Anti-vehicle player in other FPS but in Dust I loathe the HMG aesthetic....
Make lol fits.
Mass Driver on Sentinels, even the Amarr Sent, can cause some scary supression.
The Lazer can keep you out of most assault ranges, so you can take less damage.
Make it a more hulking assault.
Really the Sentinel can use any weapon to some extent of auccess. Despite the HMG being it's only heavy weapon (besides forge) it isn't bonded to it strictly.
I use the Amarr Sentinel, until i spec back into my beloved Scout. I use 2/2 armor/reps. The Amarr suits are very close to the Gallente, in regards to armor that is. It is still the OG. And i only use the AHMG if I have to. It is deadly, but other stuff can be more fun. So really, have fun with the fits. Be creative.

Hmm I was under the impression you had both heavies and scouts already but that apparently isn't the case. Anyways, no matter your playstyle I'm sure you're welcome to the Bastion. More cake for us too~

I may post this in GD at some point in the near future but out of respect I wanted to posit here first.
I am looking for some friendly advice.
I am at 73 million SP but I only have 6 proto suits, none of which are Sentinel. I like to max out my weapons.
I am thinking I would like to skill up a Sentinel pretty soon.
Full disclosure: I have a Republic "Warlord" that is stuffed to the gills. I also have the HMG at proto with prof 4 etc.
I prefer to play DUST solo. I know, I know, it's just what I prefer.
So my question. Minmatar Sentinel or Gallente? Which should I go with?
I don't do Amarr or Cal tech.
Oh, and I've been using the HMG on the Warlord, tried Assault HMG which was ok, didn't care for the burst. Any advice there?
Thanks and stay gold.
It depends.
The Gallente Sentinel is similar towards the Amarr, more armor based but has great reps. Two reps and two plates are hard to take down. On the other hand, I believe the Matari Sentinel has an added bonus to the HMG, so there is that.
Both are good, it is all on what you prefer.
Until Lambs become Lions.

It has a 3HP/s native (built in) rep and 2 high slots. Minmitar gains no bonuses for HMG. Only bonuses Sentinels gets are 5% Splash damage resistance per level, Heavy weapon fitting bonus and resistances to damage vs certain weapons
Thank you for that. o7 and that makes me sad, no bonus for it's own gun?

Eruditus 920 wrote:I'm leaning towards the Federation.
More base HP, more native armor reps, and resistance to RR and CR, which are popular.
I might put a Kin Cat, a plate and an armor repper in the lows?
Kin Cats are an old habit of mine bc of solo reasons. Habits hard to break.
I don't really know much about fitting it. I like my warlord but don't know anything else so...
But I'm open to suggestions.
The plate would basically negate the kincat, if you want a kincat, perhaps a ferro. Or go two reps one kincat.

Gallente Heavy best heavy, Breakin knows it, Joel knows it, even Fox Garden knows it. It deserves 2heat4me, all Amarr need is the Scrambler Lance, we need a flamethrower, the apex of Gal CQC alongside the Shotgun. A mortar just reminds me of the PLC.

I have to disagree. It may not specialise like the other suits, but that doesn't automatically put it at a disadvantage. if anything, not specialising and being a general purpose suit actually allows it to adapt to the changing flow of battle without needing to go back to a supply depot. Just my opinion, but I'd rather have a jack-of-all-trades suit than a can't-do-anything-without-a-logi-on-me suit, because that's how the AmSent comes across to me; the go-to suit for Logi spam. Indeed, without a logi, i only take 5 peeps with me in my AmSent. It is a sitting duck by itself, it's reps are horrendous.

Shotguns and NKs from behind. Scrambler Pistol headshots (fatties have a larger hitbox for the head) there's several ways to counter heavies. the problem is most heavies are either on a logi leash, or they have buddies running flanker. Yoooooo, locked immediately. I guess CCP can't handle the goon in me. Best CPM.
Shotgun, RE, and NK are the bane of a heavies existence.

The galmando was already pretty solid after the slot changes if we can get all the commando CPU/PG issues sorted.
Galsent will have to wait a little longer for it's day of parity. But I think we have found a way to put it even with the golden fatty.
If rattati decides he likes it, then we might see some progress there. The regular and breach ARs will be balanced. I see the Tac and Burst being unholy abominations.
